| I was considering this, I have a SE, with the clear case. I also have a Iwata airbrush and was considering a light coat of orange paint from the inside to make a translucent orange. I was just wondering if anyone else has painted theres, and has any pictures or anything.. |

| I think NOS is something that people put in their cars that is illegal. I think it makes your car more powerful by making it have more combustion. |

NOS stands for Nitrous Oxide. Its not illegal at all. They sell it in car shops all around. The only thing its basically used for is illegal street racing. Yet street racing is illegal, it does not make NOS illegal itself in any way. NOS is a gas that is used to increase your speed/acceleration. When it is burned in your engine, it gives your car an outstanding boost depending on how much you use. Usually there is a knob or whatnot used to control the amount used.
As for your one comment about putting it in calcs... that would probably make calcs work so fast that it would overheat and break your calc. If it was possible at all you would have to make a lot of modifications for it to work correctly I would suppose? |

wow... lots of posts about my "NOS" stickers... for all of you that actually care:
Yes it is a sticker, and i got two of em
and i put them there because a friend of mine bought some (for no other reason but to stick them to things) i put two on my 83+. ever since then people who see my 83+ seem to ask me weird questions from "is that possible?" to "what you got runnin that thing?" (yes they were serious) most of the time i have them come to the concluesion that i got a modified nos injecte calculator. is there anything wrong with that? is it wrong playing mind tricks on people who clearly have no idea what a calculator is? i think not |
